RE: Why I Turned Down an Interview with Google

in #life7 years ago

great share about your experiences in the tech space. I spent 28 years at IBM and a couple at Accenture. I called it a gravy train on biscuit wheels, just sopping up the gravy. Then the gravy dried up and the biscuits got hard. I am still a geek in Dad's clothing and truly enjoy the exponential technologies space. My goal is how to manifest in my family's lives. Crypto's are just a fascinating tech that is transforming the world view and use of money.

No kidding? I had no idea!

Agreed. I would prefer to leave Amazon for something crypto related rather than to another large tech company.

When I left IBM and Transitioned to Accenture, I did have 30 days of Overlap. Hardest I ever worked for a double paycheck. But I already had streams cranking in Real Estate and the Markets. Did not take much time on the streams but had to be managed for cashflow. So my recommendation is not leave the day job, until you have enough streams to cover your living expenses or a secure job in a new company. Either way, the ideas to accumalate streams and cashflows so it is not just about finding a secure job...

Holding quite a bit of dividend funds already. I'm also looking to get my first condo in the next few months.

Sage advice. This is what I'm working on right now. To have as many different income streams as possible (working on a Udemy course, as well as a mobile app for steemit, in order to supplant the dividends and real estate) so as to not rely explicitly on a job. I think I'll always work, but by choice, not necessity.
